Hosta ‘Time in a Bottle’
Hosta 'Time in a Bottle' is a beautiful plantain lily with wavy yellow foliage and late summer purple flower buds that do not open.
Hosta ‘Time in a Bottle’ is a feast for the eyes with narrow, wavy leaves offering contrast and movement while the bright yellow to chartreuse colour provides a hot pop in the shade garden. And, on top of all that, in late summer, tall scapes of dark purple flower buds provide more contrast lasting over a very long period as they buds do not open or fade in colour. A nice mounding habit of 12 inches tall and 36 inches wide serves as a very attractive specimen and focal point in the shady garden, containers, and as cut foliage and flowers for vases.
